Different Cultures Within

Sonoma County

I know there are many more "Cultures" within Sonoma County. I will add more as I find items about their history. For example I would love to add some links dealing with the Japanese in Sonoma County during WW 2 because I know there were "Camps" for Japanese-Americans in which some of our Sonoma County Japanese had to stay for a time.
